Surprise Your Valentine With a

Rescue Plush Dog

As part of our annual

Valentine for Boston celebration...and back by popular demand... you can bring Rescue home for February 14th.

Limited Edition Rescue comes with his own dog house, Service Dog cape and heart- shaped name tag. He is available for purchase at the NEADS campus store or online.

One of several NEADS Service Dogs named by the Worcester, MA Fire Department, Rescue is named in memory of Firefighter Jon Davies, who rode on Rescue 1.

Rescue is the first Service Dog to be placed with a Boston Marathon bombing survivor through the NEADS Pawsitively Strong Fund. He is matched with Jessica Kensky, who describes him as a "life saver." Rescue is specially trained to open doors, fetch objects, hit buttons, flip switches, open the refrigerator and generally assist Jess with her daily activities.

When Jess first met Rescue and began their training together she described what she felt asHappiness...This was the first time I felt pure happiness. There wasn't anything else. Just happiness.
